| Model year | COMPONENT | Complaint |
| 2000 | SEATS | MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR FAILED AT LEAST 6 TIMES IN THE PAST 60,000 MILES, CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO STALL. CONSUMER DISCUSSED THIS WITH VOLKSWAGEN, AND ASKED MANUFACTURER FOR AN EXTENDED WARRANTY. HOWEVER, VOLKSWAGEN WAS NOT LISTENING. *AK THE DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT UP/DOWN LEVER SPRING BROKE. THE MICRO SWITCH FAILED AND AS A RESULT THE TRUNK LIGHT AND GAS LIGHT ON THE DASH WERE INOPERATIVE. THE AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCKS FAILED. *NM |
| 2013 | FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | MY VEHICLE SUDDENLY LOST ACCELERATION AND SUBSEQUENTLY STALLED. FORTUNATELY, I WAS ABLE TO PULL BETWEEN SOME CONSTRUCTION CONES BEFORE IT LOST POWER COMPLETELY. UPON TOWING TO A DEALER, I WAS TOLD THE FUEL PUMP HAD FAILED. VW WARRANTY WILL COVER ALL DAMAGE, BUT IT IS CONSIDERABLE. ALL FUEL INJECTORS, PUMPS, LINES ETC WILL BE REPLACED. I SOON LEARNED FROM FRIENDS THAT THIS HAPPENED TO THEIR TDI MODEL VEHICLES AS WELL. ALL INFORMATION THAT I FIND DATES TO 2011, BUT YOU NEED TO KNOW THIS PROBLEM IS STILL OCCURRING. I AM VERY CAUTIOUS ABOUT WHERE I FILL UP AND STILL EXPERIENCED THIS FAILURE. IN SPITE OF BEING ASSURED BY THE VW MECHANIC THAT MY CAR WILL BE "PERFECT," I FEEL THAT I NEED TO REPORT THIS INCIDENT. *TT |
